+</I>&gt;<i> This kind of code need constant efforts on packager side to keep them

+</I>&gt;<i> spent and the added value for end user is quite low.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> On the other hand, this codec issue is totally obscure for any end user,
+</I>&gt;<i> and the skills needed to rebuild the whole software chain is way out of
+</I>&gt;<i> scope for the average mageia target population.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So, it would be far more consistent to either follow the debian way of
+</I>&gt;<i> life, and get rid of flash and skype downloaders, or to make life easier
+</I>&gt;<i> for end-users, just by adding this miserable faac package in less
+</I>&gt;<i> problematic repository.
+</I>Actiually we have two repos containing free software (core and tainted)
+and one repo conatining nonfree software.
+We have two repos not tainted by patents (core and nonfree) and one
+other (tainted).
+So either we redefine something about our repos or we add a fourth one
+or we don't build that kind of software.
